WARNING...for all male readers-the next few pictures are not likely to be interesting to you...read/skim forward if you choose, but know you HAVE been warned...
Firstly, I wanted to show my new blonde look. So I've got a before and after to show you how dark my natural color actually is. I hadn't coloured my hair for 1 year so it was all natural hair left on my head:)
This picture (as unflattering as it is) was taken during my first (and so far only) pasta making adventure. It's kind of hard to see my hair, but overall it just looks pretty gross (I think).
The AFTER picture was taken on Friday night after getting my hair highlighted. I'm not really sure why my dad chose to stick his arm + orange peel in the picture, but it's there:)
My other Fun thing that I wanted to post was my Castle Birthday Cake. That's right, at 23 I chose to decorate and design a castle cake as my birthday cake:)
So here's a few shots from the creating of the cake...
This picture shows the very base of the cake. It's a chocolate cake with a cafe flavoured whip cream filling and covered in chocolate gnash...and that's just the beginning!
This was the castle before decorating. All of the structural pieces were assembled and covered in icing at this point.
And here's the finished product. You can't see it, but in the middle of the castle there are whales and frogs swimming in the chocolate pond. The sentries are little penguins on top of the whales and at the end of the drawbridge are two little frogs. I'm not sure who Prince Charming is, but I'm supposed to be represented by the pretty girl in pink:)
I enjoyed the cake with some good friends on Friday night after we went out and got manicures and pedicures at a place in the mall. It was a fun time...even when you get 'old' you can still have good parties!
My mom and I were having a bit of fun with her macbook. Hence the double images of me:) I thought it was kind of fun.
